The study concerns patients hospitalized in vascular and thoracic surgery in 2016 at the University Hospital of Angers for the management of a thoraco-brachial outlet syndrome. It includes all vascular and neurological manifestations related to intermittent or permanent compression of the vasculo-nervous bundle of the upper limb. Before and after the operation, these patients had agreed to complete the quality of life questionnaires, the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionary (DASH) and the Short-Form 12 (SF-12). The objective of the present study is to evaluate the long-term quality of life, using the questionnaires mentioned above, completed by 54 patients treated surgically for thoraco-brachial outlet syndrome and who participated in the DEFILE-QoL study in 2016.
During certain bowel surgeries for cancer (colorectal surgery), individuals frequently have to be placed in a head-down position to enable surgeons have optimal access to the cancer site. This position usually also involves bending the hips and knees while supporting the legs in stirrups. However, lying in this position for long periods of time can lower the flow of blood to the legs, which can potentially cause injury. A rare but severe consequence is called Well-Leg Compartment Syndrome (WLCS). If WLCS is not diagnosed quickly, it can lead to other difficult complications and a significant delay in recovery. Unfortunately, because the individual is under anaesthesia, diagnosis is delayed in many cases. There is very little information in the medical literature about how this damage to the legs progresses over the course of the surgery. To better understand how WLSC, how well blood vessels work during surgery will be assessed. The flow of blood and oxygen in the calf muscle will be assessed in 25 individuals placed in a head-down position during colorectal surgery. Likewise, blood samples will be obtained in order to measure the biological markers that may contribute to the development of WLCS.
Children had Down syndrome often have impaired balance and postural control and result as less active than their peers that can lead to reduced quality of life and movement skills. Effects of physical activity may be important in preventing falling risk and health consequences in those children
Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (MGS) is a clinical picture accompanied by genital and urinary symptoms and is commonly seen in the postmenopausal period. In the literature, the effects of drug and non-drug methods in the improvement of these symptoms have been investigated in many different designs. There is limited evidence that pelvic floor physiotherapy improves vulvovaginal blood flow with repetitive muscle activation, reduces vulvar irritation with reduction in urinary incontinence episodes, and normalizes pelvic floor muscle tone in the treatment of MGS. In addition, there is no study to the best of our knowledge investigating the effects of pelvic floor muscle exercise training and patient/individual training, in which individuals are informed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the effects of pelvic floor muscle training and patient/individual information training in the presence of a physiotherapist on genitourinary symptoms and quality of life in individuals with GSM and to contribute to science in the light of this information. Before starting the study, the physical (height, body weight) and sociodemographic characteristics (age, marital status, educational status, employment status), medical history and menopausal characteristics of the individuals will be recorded. In addition, the pelvic floor muscle strength of the individuals will be evaluated at the beginning of the study and after the study is completed; genital symptoms, urinary symptoms and quality of life and scales will be questioned. Within the scope of individual/patient information education, menopause and menopause-related complaints, genitourinary (genital, sexual and urinary-related) symptoms of menopause, sexual function, the effect of menopause on sexual functions, recommendations for menopausal symptoms and complaints, and the structure and function of the pelvic floor muscles and pelvic floor muscles. Information will be given including recommendations for base health. This training will be given at the beginning of the study and will be repeated after 4 weeks to increase the benefit of the training. Individuals will be included in the progressive exercise training program within the scope of the pelvic floor muscle exercise training program. In the controls to be made every 15 days, the exercise compliance of the individuals will be monitored and the number of exercises will be increased. Exercise charts will be given in order to increase the adaptation of individuals to exercise and the benefit they will gain from exercise. The estimated time in this study is 8 weeks and it is planned to include 50 volunteers in the study.
Purpose: Multiple formulations and brands of botulinum toxin exist on the market today. Only OnabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®) is currently FDA approved for treatment of overactive bladder. IncobotulinumtoxinA (XEOMIN®) is a similar formulation of botulinum toxin A that has similar dosing and safety profile at onabotulinumtoxinA. OnabotulinumtoxinA is the most expensive formulation on the market. Compare the efficacy of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin®, Merz Pharmaceuticals) to onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®, Allergan) for treatment of OAB. Study design: A single-blinded, randomized non-inferiority trial of IncobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin®, Merz Pharmaceuticals) to OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®, Allergan) in treatment of OAB. Target Population: The study findings will be applicable to all women 18 years of age or older with OAB symptoms associated with urinary urgency incontinence. Procedure: All patients that presents to urogynecology clinic at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center will be screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients that meet criteria will be offered to participate in the study. After enrollment patient will complete demographics data sheet, 24 hours bladder diary, OAB-q SF, PGI-S, PISQ-IR. Patients will be randomized by the principal investigator and the allocated treatment will be reveled by the treating provider to the treating provider only. Patient will have a follow up at 2-6 weeks and 6-9 months after procedure. During the follow up appointments patient will be asked to fill out 24-hour voiding diary, OAB-q SF, PGI-I, PGI-S, and PISQ-IR surveys.
Evaluation of neurological and psychological complications in children diagnosed as neurocutaneous syndromes in upper Egypt
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of Ultra Sound (US) guided radiofrequency stellate ganglion block (SGB) and radiofrequency Thoracic Paravertebral block (TPVB) comparing to US-guided SGB or TPVB alone on the post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS).
Tapia syndrome is a rare and poorly understood pathology. It is defined by a concomitant attack of the recurrent (branch of X) and hypoglossal (XII) nerves of peripheral or central origin. It is characterized by the paralysis of a vocal cord and the ipsilateral half of tongue. This damage is most often unilateral but it can also be bilateral. It results in dysphonia and swallowing disorders. Tapia syndrome is a rare and poorly understood pathology. To date, less than 100 cases have been described in the literature. Previous works are mainly case reports and literature reviews. No prevalence study has been performed to date. Furthermore, disagreements persist regarding the semiology. Indeed, the involvement of the soft palate is not always described.
The goal of this observational study is to explore significant indicators to predict the early prognosis and late prognosis in patients with Guillain-Barre syndrome.
